Lyricist
“I’d like to play one song,” Arthur Russell begins his 1985 concert entitled Open Vocal Phrases Where Songs Come In And Out, as if asking for permission, then performs an arrestingly fragile, intimate setlist that no one could have ever said no to. In this concert at Phill Niblock's Experimental Intermedia Foundation, Russell sketches out tracks that would appear on his foundational World Of Echo, and to listen is to totally get lost in his continuous flow. Dusty cello manipulations rise to a transcendental buzz while his voice remains ever soft and candid in the all consuming distortion, later met with dextrous plucks and popping electronics.
